"I've been taking Gleevec since 2008. I'm 24 now. On February 7, 2015, I live a normal life. Gleevec and Stanford Hospital saved my life. I'm 24 now, just a kid, but I've walked the line and back again. I have (all) with Ph chroma zone. I've done extensive therapy. Lucky to be here. I'm the light at the end of the tunnel. Don't give up, you can do it, my friends. My heart goes out to all of my fellow fighters."
